Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes say *“many occupancy”* or *“a lot of occupancy”*. Use “high occupancy” or “low occupancy” instead (e.g., “high occupancy in the hotel”). Learners also confuse “occupancy” with “occupation”; “occupation” can mean a job, but “occupancy” is about how full a room, building, or seat is.
